24812778

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 24812778 is a Plug-In Unit (PIU) kit designed for modular rack systems. It features a 6U height and 28 Horizontal Pitch (HP) width, with a depth of 227mm. The unit includes perforated covers and supports one connector interface. This component serves as a baseplate or structural element within the Schroff subrack ecosystem, providing mechanical support and organization for electronic modules in industrial applications.

Feature Summary

• Modular plug-in unit design compatible with standard rack frameworks
• Perforated cover construction for ventilation and visibility
• Supports single connector integration for signal or power routing

Applications

• Industrial control panel assembly
• Telecommunications equipment housing
• Test and measurement instrument racks

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact dimensional tolerances and material specifications against the official nVent SCHROFF datasheet before procurement. Ensure compatibility with existing rack frames regarding 6U height and 227mm depth constraints. Confirm that the single connector requirement aligns with system interface needs to avoid integration issues during installation.

Selection Notes

Select this PIU kit when a 6U form factor with 28HP width is required for modular expansion. Consider the 227mm depth limitation for space-constrained enclosures. Evaluate the need for perforated covers versus solid panels based on thermal management requirements. Ensure the single connector provision meets the specific signal or power distribution architecture of the target application.

Part Context

This component belongs to the nVent SCHROFF range of combinable and scalable rack accessories. It complements other Schroff products such as cabinets, backplanes, and power supplies, forming part of a comprehensive solution for electronics packaging. The product line emphasizes modularity and ruggedness for diverse industrial environments.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference part numbers like 23130353 for alternative baseplates, though dimensions may differ. Verify if similar PIU kits from other manufacturers meet the 6U/28HP/227D specification. Check for updated revisions in the nVent SCHROFF catalog that may supersede this specific ordering suffix.
